      rdavidr I have this sweet ass slingerland set I think is from the earlier 70’s!!! I’m in the process of restoring it but I can’t find parts to save my life! I’m looking for the spike style long rods and thought if anybody had them, you did! Lol you need to open a damn drum store!

  • @underpressureman
    @underpressureman Před 4 lety +1

    Dude congrats on the ISA Pre's. Definitely one of my favorite and tonnes of gain, clarity and punch for drums. I recently recorded drums for an album Im working on and used my ISA with a Senheiser Md421 II for the inside kick and it sounded killer. I love Neve Pre's but for drums I often prefer ISA's and API's, especially for inside kick, snare, and toms. I also love the ISA's because they can easily drive SM7b's and other dynamic and ribbon mic's. Also, if you push them into the yellow(and even just a hair into the red) you get just a really nice saturation from the output transformer that sounds something like in between a Neve and an API. Its such a great middle ground. Also expirement with different impedance options on different mic's, you'll be surprised how much it will change the sound/output. Usually though I like the high impedance with dynamic and ribbons, and Ill usually like the ISA or Medium setting for condensers. If you have any questions about it let me know, I know this pre inside and out!!! You rock dude, stay safe during these crazy times!

    Looking really heavy duty! I really like the floating rack gear so you can slide stuff underneath - very handy when cleaning, did a similar thing on my DIY platform desk. For cabling you may want to consider a supplier besides Hosa - their stuff is nice enough but in bulk quantities can get expensive. Monoprice is a good alternative but making your own cables is even better. Get a 100' spool of mic wire and a bunch of neutrik XLR/TS/TRS connectors and you can make exactly the cable you need, exactly the length you need, whenever you need it, for a fraction of the price. Enjoy your new space!

It was hot up there. I headed straight for the showers after that. Some guy told me they used to have someone whose main job was to empty the ashtrays in the control room.
